This article provides a comparison of the British Modern Apprenticeship scheme with apprenticeship provision in six continental countries. A number of key aspects of apprenticeship provision were examined in order to establish a benchmark against which to judge British policy for vocational training. These aspects include: length of training; content of programmes; methods of assessment; final standards required; how apprentice places are provided; how candidates find these places; the educational background of apprentices; the incentives to enter and stay the course; completion and success rates; subsequent employment records; how the various national schemes are managed and financed.
